Abstract
The article examines the issue of the occurrence and influence of bending moments on the bearing capacity of a combined steel truss made of rectangular bent-welded profiles. A comparative analysis of technical and economic indicators in terms of material intensity, labor intensity, and cost of traditional-typical and lightweight combined steel trusses was carried out. The paper examines steel trusses of long-span buildings with a span of 30 m. The force graphs (bending moments and axial forces) for various calculation schemes of the combined steel truss are shown. An analysis of the forces in the combined truss for different ways of connecting the lattice to the chords was carried out. The plot of normal stresses along the middle line of the stiffening girder of the combined truss for various calculation schemes is presented. The load-bearing capacity of compressed rods with different connection methods was calculated. According to the research results, an engineering method of taking into account the influence of bending moments is proposed.
